In addition to the data deluge swamping all industries, healthcare is experiencing multiple, concurrent “sea changes” including: 1) External governmental mandates, including the implementation of the Affordable Care Act; 2) Pedagogical drivers as the medical disciplines shift to evidence-based medicine; and 3) Industry tremors as payers move from fee-for-service to valued-based payments. This presentation will describe one organizations move to more reliable, in depth, widely-accessible integrated health analytics, and lessons learned along that journey.
